Simple IRA

I still can't EFile due to the w-2 box 12 simple IRA question. I looked on the IRS website and it shows clearly this should be answered as an S but I can't EFile. No updates to software today. Still will not allow me to EFile I am so angry this will make it take a lot longer getting my refund. I do not understand why not fixed before the IRS started taking the filings on 1/29???

programmers are working on this issue. Try again in a week after updating your program.

In the meantime, a workaround for this issue is to round your numbers to the nearest dollar and not include the decimal/cents.
